The CB-6-1-1500 is a CUBE(TM) enclosure containing a multi-core, broadband 6:1 impedance transformer (50 ohm coax input to 300 ohm balanced output) in series with a 1:1 current balun for extra common mode current choking to keep RF current off the outside of the coax braid and on the antenna where it belongs. The extra choking action also means that the coax feed line will not act as a radiator causing unnecessary RF interference (RFI). Rated for full 1500 watts PEP and 450 watts CW (ICAS). 1.8Mhz – 61 MHz.

CB-6-1-1500EB is housed in a 4” x 4” x 2” waterproof housing with SO-239 input and stainless steel eye bolts on the side for ease of connection to your wire antenna. Top eye bolt acts as an antenna hoist. Also available with top studs for post or wall mounting (Model # CB-6-1-1500TS). CB-6-5000EB or TS is housed in a 6" x 6" x 4" water proof enclosure.

Balun is often used for OCF antennas installed at higher distances over ground

Production Note: This item is custom made per order - please allow 3 weeks for manufacturing and shipping of this item after order is placed.

The high power ferrite impedance transformer series (> 1:1), configured with outputs to act as a baluns (unbalanced coax in to balanced load output) or as ununs (unbalanced coax input to unbalanced load output) are designed for demanding radio transmitter stations that run over 1,000 watts PEP or run continuous modes like AM, digital, RTTY, FM, etc. at high power levels. Radio contest operators, commercial shortwave broadcast, and industrial and commercial stations use these transformers for for a variety of balanced and unbalanced antenna loads. Baluns are typically used for balanced loads and antennas like dipoles, loops, log periodics, and direct feed yagi/beams. Ununs are used with verticals, end fed wires, horizontal dipoles, G5RV/ZS6BKW, Zepps, vertical wire beams, etc). All products are in an enclosed NEMA water resistant box with SO-239 input connector and stainless steel side/top studs with wing nuts or side and top eyebolts. The enclosure box has mounting “side feet” for attachment to a post or antenna boom using nylon ties.
